A Test-Oriented HMI Specification Model for Model-Based Testing of Automotive HMIs
نویسنده
چکیده
The software functionalities and complexity of today’s in-car infotainment HMIs (human machine interface) have grown significantly in recent years. While model-based testing and test automation are widely-used for testing system functions, testing the HMI remains manual tasks, which are very demanding and time consuming. In our research at AUDI AG a model-based testing approach is proposed for testing both the logical behavior and the graphical interface of the automotive infotainment HMIs. As an important part of the testing approach a test-oriented HMI specification model will be designed, which describes the theoretical behavior of the HMI and contains the necessary information for automated HMI testing. HMI tests can be generated from this model. In this paper, we discuss at first the reasons why model-based testing is still not accomplished for HMI testing and introduce a technical solution from a new perspective.

A Test-Oriented HMI Specification Model for Model-Based Testing of Automotive Human-Machine Interfaces
While model-based testing is widely-used for function tests, testing the human-machine interface (HMI) remains a manual, demanding and time consuming task. Numerous research efforts have been addressing model-based HMI testing in the last years. However the existing approaches cannot serve our test purposes or needs. In the research project at AUDI AG a model-based testing approach is proposed ...
متن کاملModel-Based Testing for the Menu Behavior of Automotive Infotainment System HMIs
Testing the graphical human machine interface (HMI) of automotive infotainment systems has shown to be costly and challenging due to its large function scope, high complexity and multiple variants. To ensure the quality and reduce testing costs we are working on a model-based testing concept for graphical HMIs of infotainment systems. In our work the short form ”HMI” is used for the term ”graph...
متن کاملModel-based Test Automation for Automotive Human Machine Interfaces
The development process of automotive human machine interfaces (HMIs) is traditionally characterized by a number of discontinuities. A diverse set of stake-holders participate in this development process, all of which have their own perspectives, use their own approaches, and rely on their own representational frameworks and tools. Our strategy to overcome the existing discontinuities relies on...
متن کاملChallenges in Automated Model-Based HMI Testing
We describe our approach to automated model-based HMI testing. The paper is divided into two parts. In the first part, we summarize the current status of our work. In the second part, we describe a number of research areas that need to be worked on in order to achieve true model-based HMI test automation. 1 Test Automation in the HMI Domain The task of test automation involves two subtasks: (1)...
متن کاملAn automatic test case generator for evaluating implementation of access control policies
One of the main requirements for providing software security is the enforcement of access control policies which aim to protect resources of the system against unauthorized accesses. Any error in the implementation of such policies may lead to undesirable outcomes. For testing the implementation of access control policies, it is preferred to use automated methods which are faster and more relia...
